“I quietly work with my computer on the tour bus, and then I wait to ma...” — Jain Quote

I quietly work with my computer on the tour bus, and then I wait to make my more natural rhythms when I get home.

Moving to Dubai at age 9 and then the Congo, they were two completely opposite countries. But that brought me to music and taught me things that I never would have learned otherwise. And it was always about the rhythm in those two countries - that's why I love them.

I grew up in a family where, when we listened to music everybody would dance, so for me that's a very natural thing to do.

Since I was a child, I was yearning to learn about percussion because that's what I loved.

My favourite place was in The Congo. It's where I began to write songs and build myself as an adult.

Thinking you've had depression makes about as much sense as thinking you've been run over by a bus. Trust me - you know when you've got depression.

In the dime stores and bus stations, people talk of situations, read books, repeat quotations, draw conclusions on the wall.

When I started going to training my father used to take me. But that meant we had to buy two bus tickets and it was not easy for us, you know.

I had spent many years before I was 31 hearing people tell me, Oh Man, you're so funny, you need to be in television. But that and a quarter won't get you on a bus.

As soon as I walk outside, I get depressed. If I see a dog, I'll get upset about how much it must suck to be on a leash. I'll get on a bus and tear up at the thought of how the driver has to go back and forth on the same street for eight hours in mind-numbing traffic.
